Introduction
A neatly designed belt and disc sander.
The worktable on the belt and disc sander is a decent size
and used on both functions. The table is easy to transfer
from one function to the other. The table pivots from 0°
to 45° and incorporates a mitre fence running in a slot for
bevel and compound angle sanding. The sanding linisher
also moves from vertical to horizontal with just two

General Instructions for 230V Machines
The following will enable you to observe good working
practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and
maintain your tools and equipment in good working order.
WARNING!! KEEP TOOLS AND
EQUIPMENT OUT OF REACH OF
YOUNG CHILDREN
KEEP WORK AREA AS
UNCLUTTERED AS IS PRACTICAL.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHOULD CHILDREN BE ALLOWED
IN WORK AREAS.
Mains Powered Tools
• Tools are supplied with an attached 13 Amp plug.
• Inspect the cable and plug to ensure that neither are
damaged. Repair if necessary by a suitably qualified
person.
• Do not use when or where it is liable to get wet.
Workplace
• Do not use 230V a.c. powered tools anywhere
within a site area that is flooded.
• Keep machine clean.
hexagon socket bolts to loosen with a key, suiting the task
in hand. The belt has close fitting guarding which helps this
machine achieve a high level of efficient dust extraction.
When connected to a simple vacuum extractor almost
total dust extraction is achievable. The chassis is heavily
constructed in a single iron casting to support the tables
and belt arm, and has locating holes for securing this
sander to a workbench if you so wish.
Having opened the box, remove the top packaging and lift
the machine out and place upon a clear flat surface, taking
care not to trap or pinch the power cable under the chassis.
Remove the remaining items from the box and place safely
aside.
• Leave machine unplugged until work is about to
commence.
• Always disconnect by pulling on the plug body
and not the cable.
• Carry out a final check e.g. check the cutting tool
is securely tightened in the machine and the
correct speed and function set.
• Ensure you are comfortable before you start work,
balanced, not reaching etc.
• Wear appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves,
masks etc. Wear ear defenders at all times.
• If you have long hair wear a hair net or helmet to prevent
it being caught up in the rotating parts of the machine.
• Consideration should be given to the removal of rings
and wristwatches.
• Consideration should also be given to non-slip
footwear etc.
• If another person is to use the machine, ensure they are
suitably qualified to use it.
• Do not use the machine if you are tired or distracted.
• Do not use this machine within the designated safety
areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas where there
may be volatile gases.
• Check cutters are correct type and size, are
undamaged and are kept clean and sharp, this will
maintain their operating performance and lessen the
loading on the machine.
• OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is
happening around you and USE YOUR COMMON SENSE.

Specific Safety Precautions for Sanding Machines
DO NOT sand very small pieces of work with bare hands;
try to construct some form of holder.
Make sure you are comfortable before you start work,
balanced, not reaching etc. If the work you are carrying
out is liable to generate excessive grit or dust or chips
wear the appropriate safety clothing, goggles, masks etc.
If the work operation appears to be excessively noisy wear
ear-defenders. If you wear your hair in a long style wearing
a cap, safety helmet, hairnet, even a sweatband, will
minimise the possibility of your hair being caught up in
the rotating parts of the machine. Likewise, consideration
should be given to the removal of rings and wristwatches
if these are liable to be a ‘snag’ hazard.
DO NOT work with cutting/abrasive tools of any
description if you are tired, your attention is wandering
or you are being subjected to distraction.
DO NOT use the machine within the designated safety
areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas where there
may be volatile gases.
Check that sanding surfaces are still sufficiently abrasive
to carry out the work you intend. Sanding belt cleaning
sticks are an efficient method of prolonging the life of
the belts and discs and will also maintain their operating
performance.
Check that the belts or discs are undamaged; torn edges
can pick up on the work piece and will cause the medium
to tear, often very rapidly with accompanying sharp
flapping edges.
Always offer the work piece to the belt/disc so that the
motion carries the work against the restraining surface i.e.
the work stop or the table (use the right hand side of the
disc).
DO NOT press too heavily against the sanding surface, all
this will do is slow the sander down. Remember, sanders
work by removing small particles of material quickly and
heavy pressure works adversely to the cutting process.
Further, it will accelerate the rate of ‘clogging’ of the
abrasive surfaces, rendering the machine less efficient.
If you are attempting to sand inside curves (over the
‘tracking drum’) do not press at all, other than to keep the
work piece in contact with the surface, any pressure could
upset the tracking geometry. As there is no cushioning
effect to the belt passing around the drum, expect an
added vibration and compensate for it.
Sanding of certain types of timber may make the fitting
of dust extraction mandatory in order to comply with the
directives of the HSE. However, even if it is not mandatory,
it is strongly recommended that you consider fitting dust
extraction. It will certainly reduce the level of dust and grit,
and as it helps to remove the waste quicker will certainly
prolong the longevity of the abrasive.
Above all, OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is
happening around you, and USE YOUR COMMON
SENSE.

Tracking the Linisher Belt
The tracking control works as follows:-
Using your hand, roll the belt towards the drive drum, check
that the belt stays in the middle of the table, if not, adjust
the track control slightly, and move the belt again, continue
until the belt runs down the centre of the linisher’s table
DO NOT make large adjustments,
and remember the belt may take
time to react to your alteration.
Little by little is a good maxim
to observe when carrying out
tracking operations.

Remove the linisher belt. Inspect the new belt, ensure that
there are no tears or rips especially along the edges, check
the direction arrows on the inner surface of the belt and fit
accordingly. The direction of the arrows should point to the
drive drum of the sander.
NOTE: If you are using an old belt, and the arrow
markings have worn off, check the direction of travel,
see diagram below.

WEAR A DUST MASK &
EYE PROTECTION WHEN
CLEANING YOUR SANDER!
There is very little mechanical maintenance that can be
carried out on the machine. Most prudent maintenance
is preventative and concerned with keeping the machine
clean.
At reasonable intervals, inspect and remove all dust/resin
build up using a class ‘M’ vacuum cleaner.
Remove the worktable (B),side extraction panel/disc
extraction plate and clean any dust or resin build up.
Inspect the sanding disc for signs of wear and tear and
replace if necessarily. Re-assemble the sander.

Linisher Drive Belt Tension
If you notice the belt stopping while under load and the
disc is still in motion this could mean a sign that the belt is
damaged or has become loose. To check, remove the drive
belt cover and examine the belt for signs of fraying and
missing teeth.
